It is now illegal to discipline students who are disruptive in class.
A proposal meant to protect kids from unnecessary discipline by banning expulsions for disobedience in California schools passed out of the Assembly this week, moving closer to becoming a law.
The Assembly voted 58-17 for Senate Bill 419,
which now moves back to the Senate for a vote on amendments before it
goes to Gov. Gavin Newsom.Under the amended SB 419, schools would be
prohibited from suspending any student from kindergarten to eighth grade
“who disrupts school activities or otherwise willfully defies the valid
authority of supervisors, teachers, administrators, or school
officials,” beginning July 1, 2020.The bill also would prevent students of any grade from being expelled from school for the same reason.
